Posted February 18, 2014 Hello. With every major update in Wurm, along with the officially released changes, there are always some smaller things that the developers sneak in to surprise us with. Great stuff. Sometimes, however, I am not sure if it's an undocumented addition or my settings suddenly gone to high heaven So, I double checked my settings and they seem identical to what I had. Given that, I can attest that at least on my computer I have noticed the following sneak surprises: 1. Oleander bushes have a new model. They look great now! I want them everywhere. 2. Grass seems more detailed and has a new look (more gray strands of grass, despite it being early summer). Something new in the patch, however, is hosing my resolution suddenly to low levels, which is strange, as I though I had a supercomputer. I need to find out what it is so that I can tweak my seetings. So, what other undocumented changes have you noticed, if any? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2014 Hahaha we should definitely make this a thing for EVERY update big or small. Start an "undocumented changes" thread. God knows theres always more of those than the ones that we get told about 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2014 grass looks the same to me, but we have shiny plastic horses again. and if you have oleander on steep slopes they look kinda dumb cause their graphic doesn't go all the way to the bottom 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2014 Raging mobs aren't pink anymore, they look the same as regular ones. Not sure if this goes for all modifiers. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2014 Blue smoke. You'll know it when you see it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2014 Hi all. The lighting has been tweaked, and will continue to be tweaked until fully corrected, as for when it will be fully corrected I cannot say. The Oleander model is indeed new. Resolution is in your client settings, and have not been changed via the update. As for the mobs not having their colour, I will have to get back to you on that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 18, 2014 Spirit Templars and Smoke from Lava mobs appear blue to me Something to do with being close to water, and the angle you look at them. Shader issue I'm thinking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 18, 2014 Please don't be a bug. I would love 1.2 to be the end of the skittles generation of mobs.I like it myself, though...I'd rather them be visually different looking (standing different, more aggressive looking, ect) rather then colors... But considering we don't have that... >_< 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 18, 2014 Large crates seems to have a weird creation chance, maybe it's a hard cap? With 41 carp: 89% chance to make small crate. Couldn't start /continue on large crate (0% under unavailable) With 75 carp: 94% to make small crate. 63% chance to create large crate. Same material qualities. If 75 skill has 63% it should be possible with 41 carp unless it's hard capped? Crates use carpentry to make, but maybe it's capped be fine carpentry?

Posted February 18, 2014 My GUI resolution definitely was changed. The maps are prettymuch useless until I can get my GUI resolution back to where it used to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2014 I actually like the blue spirit templars. It's gives them a more ghostly feel matching the name. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
